James D. Lester Jr.

Dr. James D. Lester, Jr. is a veteran English instructor with over forty years of experience as a secondary classroom teacher and part-time college instructor. His current position is in the Grade 8 English classroom at Fellowship Christian School in Roswell, Georgia.

He is the author of a children's book series - Corn Flower: A Girl of the Great Plains. This set of books taps into Dr. Lester's interest with tales about the joys and challenges of Native American Life in Kansas during the early 1800’s. Much like children in modern culture, Corn Flower cherishes the closeness of her family, fun with her best friend, and the endless quest for adventure. Other writings include the popular college text Writing Research Papers, 16th edition, and The Research Paper Handbook, 4th edition.

In his private live, Dr. Lester finds joy by spending time with his five grandchildren and birdwatching in the hills of North Georgia.
